AS ANOTHER GROWING SEASON nears the finish line, now is the time to start planning for your 2027 crop input needs. With commodity markets, input costs and farm operating expenses all playing a role in your bottom line, making smart purchasing decisions early can help improve your overall cost management. That is why Key Cooperative offers SECURE™, a crop input financing program designed to help you commit early, lock in an attractive financing rate and plan with greater confidence.

Commit early and save
SECURE gives producers an opportunity to take advantage of competitive financing rates when committing to qualifying crop inputs early. The earlier you make your seed commitment, the better the financing rate available to you.
  • Commit by October 9, 2026: 0.99 percent APR
  • Commit by November 6, 2026: 1.99 percent APR
Both promotional rates are good through October 31, 2027, giving you an opportunity to manage your crop input investment throughout the upcoming growing season.

Early commitment can provide more than financing savings. It can also help you get a head start on seed selection, product availability and crop planning. By making decisions sooner, you can work with your Key Agronomy team to identify products that fit your acres, management practices and production goals.

Quality seed choices
SECURE applies to eligible crop input purchases, including seed from some of the industry’s leading brands. Producers can choose from trusted genetics and product options from DEKALB®, Asgrow®, Brevant® and CROPLAN®.

Whether you’re looking for corn or soybean products, your local Key Cooperative Sales Agronomist can help you evaluate available options and determine which products best fit your operation. Every farm is different, and variety selection should account for soil type, maturity, yield potential, disease ratings, agronomic characteristics and your individual management program.

Combining early planning with the right genetics can help position your operation for the season ahead.

Put your plan in place
Farming requires making important decisions well before the crop goes in the ground. SECURE is an opportunity to make one of those decisions early while potentially reducing the cost of financing your crop input investment.

Take a look at your expected 2027 acres, consider your seed needs and talk with your Key Agronomy team about available options. Committing by October 9, 2026, provides the best promotional financing rate of 0.99 percent APR. If you need additional time, committing by November 6, 2026, can still provide a competitive 1.99 percent APR.

Your local cooperative is here to help you make informed decisions and prepare for a successful growing season. From seed selection to crop input planning, Key’s Agronomy team understands the challenges facing our producers and is ready to help you build a plan that fits your operation.

Commit early. Save on financing. Plan with confidence.
